Carr is right. Im in my 2nd year Uni and you've just gotta learn to budget yourself. It'll take a few months to get used to it but is easy after that.
Helps to have plenty of money coming in each month though

I also started in september, it's hard not to spend money on going out when there's always someone knocking at your door, i'm working over christmas to try and put back some of the money i've wasted!

Think i'll owe 12k when i finally finish But, you need a bit of self control whilst at uni. It's to easy to go out every night because you get to know so many people.
I owe uni money in fees at the minute

you'll be working 9-5 when you leave uni, so you'll be bored again and have a big debt. Great
